The problem with the read-everything-into-memory approach is that this is not how the JVM ecosystem works. Things written for the JVM use the classpath primarily, and things in memory secondarily if at all. We can't control the fact th

The "prerendering" function isn't for human consumption. It's meant to make the page spiderable by search engines. Since it's a single-page app all content is on the page so the #/home/ links aren't r
